Abstract:The study objective was to identify causes and countermeasures relevant to pedestrian. accidents. Behavioral and descriptive data were collected by interviews and on-scene observations for over 2,000 pedestrian accidents in 13 major cities. Subsequent analyses emphasized individual case causation and accident type classification relevant to countermeasure implementation. Cases were divided into accident types on the basis of causal factors and target groups, to provide a basis for countermeasure identification. The five most frequent types accounted for over 50% of the sample cases. Countermeasures relevant to each accident type are discussed. /Abstract from report summary page/
